I’ve been conflicted on this one, as I will ask it stuff I know a bit about and am looking at getting into the weeds on it, and it gives me bad info. Then I have to correct it to redirect it, and it’s eventually just a parrot. So can I really trust it to tell me what I don’t know at all?
It also feels like another form of brain rot… it’s like arguing online, but worse, since I know for a fact it’s just a bot on the other end.
Can relate to this. I really wonder if the people using AI to learn new skills are checking the output against non-AI sources?
I’ve tried making training content for topics I know well, and LLMs will leave out very important information or write long pages about irrelevant content. The dangerous part is that it all looks and reads plausibly.
